Definition

a linked list provides the same operations as an array list, such as add, remove, isEmpty, size, and contains. But a linked list stores its elements in a fundamentally different way. Elements of a linked list are stored in small individual containers called nodes. The nodes are “linked” together, with each node storing a reference to the next node in the list. The overall linked list objects keeps references to the front and back nodes.
